This tree is the oldest architecturally planted stands in the world. It was planted in 1793.

Stoney Littleton Long Barrow is a neolithic chambered tomb located in Somerset that dates back to around 3500 BCE. It is thought to be one of the best preserved examples of its kind in the country! Transport yourself to the past and discover its chambered interior, intricate carvings and ancient artefacts.

Cley Hill stands proud of the surrounding flatlands at 244 m high. There is a trig point, awesome views and steep sided trails to run. It's an important area of chalk downland managed by the National Trust for the plants and insects which live here. Cley Hill is also famous for UFO sightings and crop circles, so keep an eye out :-)

Lively, not as previously described quiet and undiscovered place. Still, this green giant provides plenty of shade when it's hot.

"Planted as a sapling in 1793, the plant tree is now a gigantic presence, towering over a lovely, and largely undiscovered courtyard adjoining the world famous Bath Abbey." Source: https://www.weekendnotes.co.uk/bath/abbey-green-ancient-plane-tree/

The baths themselves are well worth a visit! If you want to know more about this amazing historic place, https://www.romanbaths.co.uk/visit is the official website with a lot of useful information.

The only hot springs in England discovered by the Romans. Very good audio guide with top restorations, but the highlight is the bathroom itself, very impressive to walk around on such old stones. It's easy to imagine how people used to enjoy the thermal water back then.

Easy running with lovely views up to the escarpment and white horse.

Lovely wide gravel bridleway with somewhat distracting views of the white horse and the Wilts lowlands that I had one of my worst crashes on. Deceptively smooth chunky gravel surface good for medium gravel or touring tyres. Nothing really wrong with the path excepting a few potholes and larger stones, but those potholes can make panniers bounce up and, if unsecured, said panniers can bounce into the path of one's front wheel tossing the obliviously joyful bike tourist over their handlebars and into said hard chunky gravel. One can rag their fully loaded bike down as many unsuitable trails as they please, as long as the load is secure. edit; the potholes are much bigger now.

This neolithic long barrow is aligned to midwinter sunrise. For several days either side of solstice you can watch the rising sun shining down the central chamber.

Bath, or Aquae Sulis - the northernmost thermal bath of the Romans. With the weather you can understand why the Romans appreciated the warm thermal spring.

Magnificent Plane Tree in a secluded square

Found in Bath city centre, the Roman Baths are an impressive example of Roman life. Used for public bathing during Roman reign in Britain, the baths are composed of a Sacred Spring, Roman Temple and bath house. The baths were gradually built from 60-70AD atop of natural spring water from the Mendip Hills that bubbles beneath bath. Today, you can visit the baths and its museum. But don't expect to go for a dip, as you cannot go in the water. The baths are open from 9am-5pm. Tickets start from £14.40 for adults and you can save 10% by booking online, here: https://www.romanbaths.co.uk/

nice little gravel lane at bottom of Westbury White Horse, avoids the main road

Great short walk for all the family. Amazing views of Somerset and Wiltshire.

This is the very reason that this city is called Bath. If you have not been to the Roman Baths, then you cant call your trip to Bath complete. There is a lot to see when visiting the Roman Baths and will take you a good few hours if you follow the interactive tour. The museum itself incorporates the main pool and many side rooms and pools that stretch under the pump room and road as the level of the original complex is much lower than the current city. It is well worth a visit. Just note that it is a museum so you wont be able to swim.
